I think slightly - I have a half inch of extra seat post showing on the Light Roadster than I would on a 50s lightweight. The front wheel is certainly a lot further forward than youd be used to, but that is fun in its own right

depps, just measured up and the frames are indeed of the same design - the forks are exactly the same and the measurements line up (other than the size difference, of course). As for why Raleigh never specified the Sports in the larger size I don't know! The nub of this is that the Light Roadster frame could be used to produce a larger Sports, should you be so inclined. Thoughts?

@depps
Does it fit differently due to its geometry than say a less slack 22-23 inch superbe?
